Livinginthepast Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 We wont catch the Chiefs now unless Mahomes get injured. The best I think we can hope for is that the Chiefs get complacent and lose to us or another team in the playoffs. They know how to win but 2 SBs might have sated their drive. They dont seem as focused as the Pats dynasty (or so I hope). Still amazes me how easily Kelsey gets open and how teams cannot neutralize Mahomes when they have to (or at all). The Broncos did a decent job in that game but their offense was woeful. Wilson is a shadow of his former self. Old, slow and his decision making is terrible at times. Seeing Brady and Brees play so well into their late 30s has ruined people's ideas of the normal deterioration of an NFL Qb's skills. What we are seeing now with Wilson was the norm with NFL Qbs in the their mid 30s until they changed the paradigm. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The hard part of their schedule is later in the season. We can keep pace. The head-to-head will be pretty crucial in terms of playoff seeding.

C.Biscuit97 Posted October 13, 2023 Share Posted October 13, 2023 The chiefs might have their most balanced team since Mahomes has been there. It’s not on him to carry them every game. They lack explosion though. Won’t be shocked if they make a big move for a receiver because minus maybe Rice, it’s a group that doesn’t scare anyone.

At this point, maybe it doesn't mean much. They've won a couple of titles, and might be in a mode of just starting slow, working out the kinks, etc., before they kick into a higher gear later in the season. But they're not passing the eye test for me. I went into the season thinking that WR corps would be an achilles heel for them, and that seems to be the case. Not sure if they can overcome that without an acquisition by the deadline Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also Houston and Tenn (with a backup qb) took them to OT. Raiders also almost beat them (lost by 1pt). The point is this isn’t new with KC during the regular season. They do enough to secure wins and set themselves up for the playoffs. I’ve seen this movie too many times. For all their ‘struggles’ thus far they’re still leading the conference. Man they’re just a resilient team. Are they unbeatable? Hello no. But it won’t be easy…especially in the playoffs. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We just need the Chiefs to lose another game and beat them ourselves in our matchup to gain the tie breaker. I for one think it's doable. As I would hope that the Chargers can get past them for once and think they can with a healthy Ekeler. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s amazing that people still don’t get this. I just assume they grew up watching Scooby Doo and were always surprised when it turned out that the ghost was just a guy in a mask. Maybe it didn’t translate to television, but watching that game in person, it was men against boys. The Chiefs could have throttled Denver if they had a reason to. They were toying with the Broncos throwing laterals, faking a FG, having Kadarius Toney take multiple snaps and throw a pass. These teams play again in 2 weeks. Andy Reid wasn’t about to put any more on tape than he had to. That’s not how he works. He’s not afraid to let his young players take some lumps early in the season to prepare them to peak in the postseason. He’s willing to tinker around with things and see what he’s got. The WRs are a weakness right now, but Rice looks legit and there’s no doubt that Mahomes will get the offense running at a high level by the end of the season. This is the most talented Chiefs team I’ve ever seen. Edited October 14, 2023 by Billl Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Respect your opinion but it's certainly not the best Chiefs team I've seen And if you're willing to say reid toys with people early in the year... So does Josh Allen and McDermott... The team doesn't show up the same for a random matchup as it does a big time game... And we still win the majority... 13-3 last year ... Our team also plays with their food a good amount They aren't always dialed in for 60 minutes Edited October 14, 2023 by Buffalo716 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will always be a “powerhouse” like the patriots were in down years with brady BUT they are beatable this year and I’d be surprised if they keep this current roster together - if they make the Super Bowl this year someone hopefully us - will knock them off in January Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a good chance they don't even win their division. I think they are a wild card team. Remember they still have KC, Philly, Cinci, LA Chargers, and Miami all away. Throw in the Cowboys too. Brutal schedule. I am pretty sure we will win at least 3 of those 5 games. We are too good not to. The one I am most sure about is Chiefs one. And if we somehow lose that even better - that will make our AFCCG win at Arrowhead even easier. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
